Thanks for encouragement. Meanwhile there are *ahem* a few issues, starting with FHS paths wired deeply into "installers" like RPM. There's a few approaches (such as turning everything but /nix/store into a huge symlink swamp, quite doable in RPM's file install state machine), but I'm open to better suggestions. 73 de Jeff _______________________________________________ nix-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.cs.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
